🎙️ Welcome to The Bible Project Daily Podcast, where we journey together through the Bible—chapter by chapter, verse by verse.

✍️ Episode Notes

Title: The Message of Christianity and Our Part in It.
Text: 1 Corinthians 1:26–2:5
 

🔑 Key Themes:

• The cross divides humanity: some see foolishness; others, the power of God.
• God overturns worldly wisdom by choosing the weak and lowly to display His glory.
• Paul didn't come with polished rhetoric, but with a simple message: Jesus Christ and Him crucified.
• True Christian unity flows from focusing on the message, not the messenger.

📖 Key Verse:

“For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.”
—1 Corinthians 1:18

🧠 Reflect:

• Do I evaluate faith based on outward impressiveness or inward truth?
• Is my boast in Christ alone, or in Christian personalities and preferences?
